is there a good place to get a video of that interview?
i totally missed it, innit.

Don't bother he gibbers and shrieks like some jungle animal and is infuriatingly unrepentant.
But if you succeed in finding online videos of the interviews pm me.
I never saw the Maxwell interview you see and seemingly ,unlike Craig, he got his comeuppance. Thusly I still have largely unresolved feelings of hate for him.

I know its not finished yet but the Guardian had a very funny summary of the series that i thought would appeal to Lithers here.

For services to torture alone, Science should've won.

An appealing point of view.

I'm really liking Kinga at the moment - she seems very mature for her age and willing to deflate anyone who's getting too far up their own arse or taking themself or the gameshow process too seriously. What I especially like is that she does this in a grownup way, using reasoned rational conversation at a moderate volume instead of shrieking in their face in the style of most of the other housemates, who never seemed to get out of the storming phase of group dynamics.

I'm torn between wanting her and Eugene to take the prize. In my fantasy post-BB world they would share the prize and do a Paul and Helen, going on to have babies, although I can't quite get my mind's-eye to visualise that particular genetic combination at quite this moment in time.

H1ppychick, it'd be like the crocodile/hippo dance in Fantasia. Ungainly but sweet.

Funny, but she has shown a side which is endearing and likeable as time has worn on - I found her exchange with Eugne as he cried post £50k acceptance made me think she was not as hideous as I'd previously assumed, and he was a lot more aware and g***pl** than he lets on/ is otherwise assumed to be....

The things she says, her purple prose just gives her away, the things she says...

I've loved Kinga since I first clapped eyes on her! I was gutted when she didn't get in. The problem is that she's as slappable as the other housemates, if not more so, when she's pissed or trying to be lively - but when she's sober she seems so down-to-earth and kind, quite childlike. She says wise things without considering herself wise or wanting to be called so. Then she sits on her drink. I wuv her.

Kinga, sweet, yes, but not a very good listener - when 'consoling' Eugene on the night of the 50K, anyone else notice how she kept interupting him to say 'If you ever want to talk Eugene, I'm here for you' - did it three times in a row, and managed to break conversation flow every time!!
 
 
Ruchbah me, Armaduras

Yes, but one could interpret such attention as straightforward comfort, not wishing to intrude upon him while he was so emotional. She has a facade of confidence that suggests she'd really like to help but probably doesn't think she can, deep down. When she said to him, "I may not be the oldest or the cleverest of the bunch...", she broke my big ol' heart like she was cracking eggs for omelettes.

Maybe she's just like the rest of the bunch - TV literate, committed to entertaining, being 'crazy' and emotional as much as she can - but just rubbish at putting on the performance.

“I would have blasted it up to 200”… said about a dozen times in the face of it being pointed out that the option wasn’t known, it seems. Duh. Until teacher says it, of course. Then the penny drops. Though not with anything approaching terminal velocity.

That was a fun show, I’m glad I watched it for a change. Kinga came over okay, though I think she should have suggested Eugene chat to the house therapist as well as her.
Makosi’s fascinating me as a picture of general oddness. The look in her eyes as she watched Eugene make the decision was strangely predatory and yet all too aware that she too was being watched. Very mannered, as is the talking about herself in the third person – I dunno, is that a known distancing tactic or something? “Makosi doesn’t like …” as a more remote and less-personal-responsibility version of “I don’t like…”?

And I’m glad Craig’s gone. To my mind, he was never ‘entertaining’ - unless that word is now a synonym for tiresome, and I missed a meeting or something.

I still like Makowsi.

Out of the last five she's the only one I could entertain the possibility of drinking with. The others are horrid - Kinga is childlike which get's tired quickly, Craig is grotesque with his whingeing ways, Anthony is young dumb and full of come, and Eugene just seems far too spoddy to be taken seriously at all.

Makowsi won't win... but she should.

Um, Jub, you have been following this year's show, yeah? This thread? Craig's out.

Also: Makosi. Unless Makowsi is a joke that I'm not getting.

It's too close to call between Anthony and Eugene, say bookies...

And it's Eugene now leading by a half a furlong as they come into the home stretch, according to digitalspy.

I think Anthony's repeated "I'd have bumped the money up to 200 grand," in spite of Makosi explaining several times to him that Eugene never knew about that option, has done him no favours. Not that being slow on the uptake would necessarily be a vote loser but seeming graceless doesn't play well. He needed Craig there to make him look good.

I am finding little Kinga quite pleasant, much to my surprise.

Makosi I long since lost all patience with. Her present hubris will not play well with the crowd either.

Eugene to win!

And I see young turk Kemal isn't wasting any time milking his Warholian timeslot. Good for him.

Kemal appearing at Bromptons (Gay club in Earls Court) for public dirt-dishing about BB that is. I suppose the road to glory is long, with many a winding turn...
 
 
Bear
16:06 / 12.08.05
Weird I didnt see that with Anthony, I saw him in the diary room saying he would have taken the money once BB explained the situation.

Tonight eh, not so much drama though that previous years?
 
 
Mourne Kransky
16:40 / 12.08.05
The fat lady hasn't sung yet, Bear, so it's all still to play for. The teenage girls who are the core audience will all be furiously texting again as soon as they've had their tea and, no doubt, thrown most of it up again straightaway. Quick strop with Mum and up to the bedroom to hide away and watch the colour portable. In that vulnerable state, who knows who they'll vote for. Might be misunderstood and unthreatening dork or could be pocket Romeo with the sexy yellow underweart that doesn't show urine stains. Certainly won't be a girl.

It's like the Eurovision all over again.

I haven't watched the show this year: I have but read this thread (and the official site, and the tabloid headlines), and here we are racing towards the finish line and I am without a televisual box on which to watch the finale.

And I do really want to watch it.

*sob*

I hope you will all be providing an unstinting commentary for me.

I want Eugene to win, because he sounds sweet and I've never had to hear one of his anecdotes. They're just funny when you recreate them here, not arm-chewingly dull.

More arm-chewingly dull on telly! That's what I want. Then I won't feel bad about the fact that I haven't got one.

Awww, at least Kinga has the consolation of knowing she was more loved than Craig. She looks quite nice there, actually.

Arm chewingly dull is the new black.

I liked how Davina forgot who Lesley was.
Davina: You're a brunette!
Moonpig : I was always a brunette, hrrrrumph...

Maxwell positively disgusting, and not a little creepy, in his cheeky cockney unform with stupid fucking hat.

Makosi in a foul mood because BB has denied her a new weave. Hohoho. Her mood will not improve when she's out next.

Makosi's looking damn glam too. She'd better get ready to work those boos...
 
 
Bear
19:30 / 12.08.05
She really does look great, I don't think she'll cope with boos very well.

It's weird seeing them all again, forgot about most of them to be honest.

OI OI!

Anyone else sad enough to be watching the 8 Out Of 10 Cats Big Brother Special? Almost all housemates coming across better with regular piss-taking. Nasty Nick still has those freakyfuck skin-coloured lips, though. Brrrrr...
